Know My Name Conference: Nan Goldin & Jennifer Higgie
Artists in Conversation
American artist Nan Goldin speaks about the evolution of her practice with Jennifer Higgie, Frieze editor-at-large and Bow Down podcast presenter.
Originally presented at the Know My Name Conference in November 2020, Goldin discusses her influences, the role of memory and memorialising in her photographs, what she is focusing on at the moment, and how her activism with P.A.I.N. (Prescription Addiction Intervention Now) has impacted on her practice. Goldin also addresses the work of her female contemporaries Greer Lankton, Cookie Mueller, Cindy Sherman and others that shape her worldview.
